[QUOTE="MortalPlague, post: 5844217, member: 62721"] I'm playing in a campaign currently where we're receiving almost entirely alternate rewards. It's a low magic game using inherent bonuses, so our DM has opted to reward us with boons, bonuses to interaction with various NPCs, and even bonus feats. It's been excellent. I just started running a 19th Level game, and one of the things I prepared was a list of 50 odd loot items. None of them are especially valuable or of obvious financial value (though very few are worthless), but they're simply around to spice up the loot tables with some neat trinkets. Some of my favorites: 6 - Jewelled goblet, which once per day, upon command, fills with fine brandy. 11 - The deed for Faethaxar, a racing pegasus in Gloamnull. 13 - A tiny clockwork beetle that can light candles. 22 - A stein carved and painted like a tower. Tiny illusory guards walk the battlements. 24 - A pair of gnomeskin boots. 37 - A rose whose petals measure the time before The Rose Vault seals for eternity (3 petals left, one drops each year). 46 - An ivory fork with 8 tines, shaped like a stylized squid. The fork squirts sauce when a button is pressed. [/QUOTE]
